“ This location is also outstanding. I like the atmosphere at this location a bit more. Food is phenomenal and highly recommend the street tacos. ”
“ I really love this place. I've been frequenting this location at least once (sometimes 2-3x) per week since January/February. The food is awesome - totally different from most Mexican restaurants in town. I'm told it's more authentic and you can definitely taste a difference - more emphasis on the pepper flavors and such. Taco Tuesday and Thursdays are awesome (1/taco); 5x Al Pastor is my go-to! My guy, Isaac, is the man! ”
